I had no idea the women in the top left and bottom left were different people
“don’t you think our generation’s idea of dating is fucked up. it amazes me how often we claim to be in love yet we kiss other sets of lips than that of our lovers. it amazes me how often my generation cheats on their partners, this is a relationship, not a diet. it just amazes me how we feel manogomity is boring. it amazes me how we prefer to sext than have romantic dinners. it amazes me how dick sizes are more important than his personality. it amazes me how love is so very often confused with lust. it really amazes me that we ourselves are responsible for not having relationships like those in a nicholas sparks book.”

“Pure love for another person, and what people call romantic love, are two different things. Pure love doesn’t manipulate the relationship to one’s advantage, but romantic love is different. Romantic love contains other elements—the desire to be loved by the other person, for instance. If purely loving another was enough, you wouldn’t suffer because of unrequited love. As long as the other person was happy, there wouldn’t be any need to suffer because you weren’t being loved in return. What makes people suffer is the desire to be loved by another person. So I decided that romantic love and pure love for a person are not the same. And that by following this you could lessen the pain of unrequited love.”
